Did you replace orifice tube?
Testimonial: "No, I did not replace the the expansion valve, it,s located inside the heater box I believe."
I assume you replaced all the rest due to a bad compressor. Trash from that failure is likely still in the system and trapped at the expansion valve.
What do think I should do now, try to back flush ?
If you flushed the system before changing compressor, you could try a back-flush. Otherwise, might be time to tackle the E-valve replacement. Sorry, that's bad news I know.
Can a remanufactured compressor cause these problems
Possibly, if it is faulty, but whenever replacing bad compressor, entire system should be flushed, drier/filter replaced, new correct type oil added, and orifice tube replaced, which on newer cars is usually in the junction where the high side line enters the heater/air box.
If it was the expansion valve,wouldn't it not work at all and me turn the system off, then on and work good again for awhile seems weird
Does my car have a office tube and where is it
David Harrelson, you didn't answer my last 2 questions
My thought is that if trash is in the system, when you turn it off that trash may let loose and move away from orifice tube or expansion valve and then when you restart it takes time to collect and block the flow again. I'm not sure this is so, just a thought. Don't know for sure if yours has an orifice tube, but I thought all newer cars are using this now, instead of an expansion valve. If you have one, it should be located inside the high side pipe at the junction to the heater box under the hood. These can be difficult to remove, so I usually insert a screw and then extract with vise grips.
